What can't Han Xiao do?

The things that Han Xiao can't do are: moving to a new home, sleeping with his head covered, eating too much, getting up too early, strenuous exercise and so on.

1. Move to a new home: The slight cold solar term is one of the coldest time periods in a year, and it belongs to a day that emphasizes yin over yang. If you move on a cold day, it may not bring wealth. According to some folk sayings, it is not only a slight cold solar term, but also an inactive day. Of course, if you don't believe this, you can move at any time.

2. Sleeping with your head covered: After the arrival of the slight cold solar term, many friends like to sleep with their heads covered because of the cold weather and no air conditioning and heating at home. In this case, although I feel warm when I sleep, from the health point of view, it is not good to sleep with my head covered and it is not recommended to do so.

3, excessive food supplement: the slight cold solar term is not far from spring, and some families began to buy new year's goods after entering the slight cold solar term. The slight cold solar term is a particularly cold period, and it is some people's favorite thing to resist the cold by taking food supplements.

4, get up early, strenuous exercise: For some elderly people, they like to get up early to exercise. I have seen many old people, whether in summer or winter, get up at 5 am and go to the park to exercise at 6 o'clock. It's ok to exercise, but you should also divide your time. It is no problem to get up early in summer. It is not recommended to get up too early when the weather is coldest after entering the slight cold solar term.

Slight cold custom:

1, eating glutinous rice: it's a slight cold season, and Guangdong has the custom of eating glutinous rice. People will add some ingredients such as sausages and bacon to glutinous rice. Glutinous rice symbolizes warmth and harvest, and is a traditional food with mild cold and solar terms.

2. Pickled bacon and sausage: In the slight cold season, people began to pickle bacon, sausage and other foods for winter consumption. Cured meat can be preserved for a long time and has a unique taste, which is deeply loved by people.

3. Cooking winter solstice porridge: In the slight cold solar terms, there is a custom of cooking winter solstice porridge in some places. Winter solstice porridge is a kind of porridge made of glutinous rice as the main raw material and adding red dates, longan and other ingredients. It tastes sweet and is a common food in winter.

4, making Laba porridge: In the slight cold solar terms, some places have the custom of making Laba porridge. Laba porridge is a kind of food with glutinous rice, red dates, longan, peanuts and other ingredients as the main raw materials, which has the characteristics of sweet taste.
